wooohooo!

This is Bex (aka [livejournal.com profile] poshmouthytart/[livejournal.com profile] alien_catcher) and I bring you THE Woman from Sherlock Holmes canon - Irene Adler.

I use a movie PB, but my characterization is based on just the text of "A Scandal in Bohemia" from the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and my own conjecture. If you are familiar with her canon(s) and want a better idea of where my Irene differs from the movie, take a look at this post here.

Check out her app here and her permissions here.

Blah blah into HI GUYS. :D

I am briefly looking into my "A Study In Emerald!"09!Irene journal.

BUT OH MAN IRENE I LOVE HER SO MUCH. I rewatched the Granada Scandal the other day 'cause I heart her. It's awesome to have her here.

IT IS AMAZING. And Irene isn't in it but it was fun adapting how she might be.

I at this point must admit to being a bit in love with Jeremy Brett as well. I'm very excited to see your Adler in action. Especially with poor Sherlock. (At least he is forewarned about having an alternate Victorian self...)

SHERLOCK...DOESN'T KNOW HER But I'm excited so he can get over it, yay!!! ♥ I have accounts for many Holmes but no book!Holmes. This seems terrible now.

Awww, well I hope I live up to expectations! I look forward to your Irene.

OH I HAVE A QUESTION. Braxiatel's best friend has met Watson and Holmes and had an adventure involving Cthulhu monsters (sort of), and Brax is the owner of the Library of St John the Beheaded, which is where the original writings were stored. Eventually. I think. The idea in DWverse (or NAverse at least) is that Watson wrote the narratives, then passed them off as the writing of Conan Doyle. So is it okay for Braxiatel to be familiar with Irene in that way? Not as a fictional character, but as a person Watson wrote about in one of his accounts.

Awesomesaucum! I was briefly contemplating throwing Sebastian that way, but you know what, he already has one vaguely Victorian person. Brax needs in on the action.
